Recipient of NSF CAREER award, Ralph E. Powe Junior Faculty Enhancement award, and Summer 2016 Research and Scholarship (RASA) award. Supported in part by NSF, NIST, Cisco, Intel, JP Morgan, and Amazon. Published papers such as 'LWE with Side Information: Attacks and Concrete Security Estimation' (CRYPTO 2020) and 'Revisiting Security Estimation for LWE with Hints from a Geometric Perspective' (CRYPTO 2023).
Research Experience
Before joining the University of Maryland, spent two years as a postdoc at Microsoft Research New England.
Education
Ph.D. from Columbia University under the supervision of Prof. Tal Malkin.
Background
Research interests include cryptography, complexity theory, and security. Specific areas of focus are post-quantum cryptography, non-malleable codes and extractors, secure multiparty computation, and black-box complexity. Additionally, interested in privacy-preserving machine learning, complexity-theoretic cryptography, and side-channel attacks.
Miscellany
Currently an Associate Professor in the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering at the University of Maryland and a core faculty member of the Maryland Cybersecurity Center.
